“A woman is like a universe; there are many things that even she still needs to discover about herself. Men on the other hand are miners, which means they are in a better position to uncover, perceive and appreciate things about women that they themselves have not yet come to the full realization of. Men know more about women than they can tell (it's for their own safety that they keep their mouths shut and pretend like they don't know anything, lest they get slammed for claming to know anything at all about women in the first place). Sadly, women are losing out on a wealth of knowledge and understanding about themselves by debunking men's ideas and notions about them especially when it comes to their femininity and sensuality. I think there is a need for women to start gently and safely asking men what they 'inherently' know about their femininity. I'm not a chauvinist nor a proponent for men's rights, but I strongly believe that men hold the keys to a lot of treasure chests that most women are daily striving to open up. Perhaps you should start inviting your man to get a little bit more involved in your feminine/sensual journey. It's only a suggestion...”

“Opposite the gates was a low concrete building. Dozens of men were spilling out of its windowless structure and stood in dark clumps on the Pit Road. At first it looked like they were leaving chapel, but as the diesel engine roared nearer, they turned as if they were one. The miners stopped their talking and squinted to get a good look. They all wore the same black donkey jackets and were holding large amber pints and sucking on stubby doubts. The miners had scrubbed faces and pink hands that looked free of work. It seemed wrong, these men being the only clean thing for miles. Reluctantly, the miners parted and let the taxi go by. Leek watched them as they were watching him. His stomach sank. The men all had his mother’s eyes.”

“Estatico, cadde a sedere sul suo carico, davanti alla buca. Eccola, eccola là, eccola là, la Luna... C'era la Luna! La Luna! E Ciàula si mise a piangere, senza saperlo, senza volerlo, dal gran conforto, dalla grande dolcezza che sentiva, nell'averla scoperta, là, mentr'ella saliva pel cielo, la Luna, col suo ampio velo di luce ignara dei monti, dei piani, delle valli che rischiarava, ignara di lui, che pure per lei non aveva più paura, né si sentiva più stanco, nella notte ora piena del suo stupore.”

“На картине Антона мужик с грубыми руками и жесткими чертами лица застыл в проеме выработки... Мужчина смотрит вдаль, словно пытаясь найти выход, но дальше, чем простирается свет лампы, уйти не может. А вот автобус на шахтной площадке — из него выходят шахтеры в грязных робах с безразличными усталыми лицами... а сбоку пятилетний мальчик с мячом в руках внимательно рассматривает мужчин, будто наблюдая за своим будущим.”

“El que ha nacido, crecido o vivido en una cuenca minera sabe bien lo que significa. Sabe que la dureza del trabajo y la pérdida de vidas se viven en carne propia. Sabe qué supone la minería para los pueblos y el paisaje, para bien y para mal. La vida en las cuencas mineras tiene un espíritu común muy poco común en otros territorios. Mirar hacia delante no es olvidar el camino, pero sólo se avanza en una dirección.”
